SAN ANTONIO — A standoff in West Bexar County that began Friday afternoon after a man was shot in the face ended nearly three hours later with no arrests.

Bexar County Sheriff's deputies responded to a call for a shooting at a house in the 15400 block of Mesquite Trail around 3 p.m. When they arrived, they found a man who had been shot in the face with a shotgun in the front yard.

She said she was told the man's girlfriend or wife came out of the house with a shotgun and fired. The Bexar County Sheriff's Office, however, was unable to confirm what led up to the shooting, or who fired on Schenck, citing an open investigation.

Initial reports from the sheriff's office did indicate that two suspects, a man and a woman, were thought to have barricaded themselves inside the house immediately following the incident. However, when the BCSO SWAT team entered the residence, no one was found inside.

Arriaga said Schenck grew up in Sacramento, California, and had moved to San Antonio around 2003.

“He's a good guy,” Arriaga said. “He's a great husband and son.”

She also said Schenck is the father of two twin boys who will be 5 years old this month.

“He's just really friendly,” she said. “He's willing to help anybody.”

Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Rosanne Hughes said deputies will continue to work on the case to find those responsible, adding more people could be involved, and that the relationship between the victim and alleged shooter has not yet been determined.
